Default thirdgenauto.com issues?

Please understand this is not a plea for business, but I am curious if anyone has had issues with our site or even had issues finding it? Something in the last three weeks has been like a light switch affect on website orders. Trying to troubleshoot potential google issues

My guess is that it is related to the Holidays . . . I know a lot of folks concentrate on their families from around Thanksgiving to the New Year.

Just a hunch Michael - I hope things return back to "normal"! Have a great Christmas season and an even better 2025!

Michael, I too think that the holidays have gotten in the way of business in general.

Well, I know that anything that I tried to do (Google search, email submit etc) was much slower on the wonderful Black Friday, Cyber Monday and Giving Tuesday.
So much for band width.

And while on these subjects: Ever notice that if you do a search on something, that in about a day you get all these pop-up ads for the thing you were looking for? Big Brother is not watching. Honest.

I checked your website last night looking for rear U-Bolts for a 1940 Ford. Wasn't able to find any, but the website seemed fine

Yep, I agree that it's just the holidays. Right now people are buying i-pads and x-boxes rather than t-stats and u-bolts.

Michael,
I just tried your site. Looks mostly fine except it looks like the Year search box doesn't work, nor does search by year. Otherwise it appears to be functioning as I remember.

If anyone is looking for a Christmas gift for me, it can be purchased at Third Gen. Michael will know what to get me.

I'm good on that product. Although that is a darn good price. I could use some muffler bearings, they are getting a little loud.

When I was there in July, he had a half dozen of those jugs.

Guess he has sold a couple since then.
